past client wanted me to tune up a couple that I had built for him in the late 80s and early 90s

Nice work,
can you share more details about the rifles?

both rifles have 24 in douglas barrels, 22-24 lines/in checkering, talley sling bases, 338 started as a 300 h&h super grade so mag length action. Wood came from Champlin Arms. Both have cast off 1/4 in at heel and 1/8 in comb and 13.5 LOP. Client doesn't reload was able to get both to shoot factory , Federal nosler partitions well. Willie at Champlin ( now past from heart attack) did the barrel work and throated them perfect. thanks elton

I have to add Willie was my mentor and helped me greatly through the years, I really miss him and his crtique. thanks elton

Damn but they look nice!!!
